on this first day of december...

snowflakes on the advent calendar but none on the ground...  it's rainy today in bohemia.  gray. wet. cold.

but inside the bohemian cottage, there is peace. peace that surpasses intellectual explanation. peace that comes from knowing Jesus is the reason for this so so magical season that is being celebrated. and no, it's not the actual birthday of that precious baby. and no, there were no snowflakes on that day. probably no rain, either.  and yet. here we are, 2012. celebrating none-the-less.  with candles wafting yummy aromas. with greeting cards showing up in the actual mailbox. tasty things to eat. everything lit up with colored lights.  o yes, it's a magical time here in bohemia.  and thankfully...

no grinch is allowed into the bohemian christmas celebration!  sparkly, sweet, peaceful december wishes to all...
